Mail! Mail! Mail!

Magazines. I love getting magazines in the mail, and I did when I was a kid too. Anorak is an amazing kids magazine from the UK, filled with beautiful illustrations and well-designed spreads. There isn't a lot of advertising, it's just pure fun and wonder. It actually makes you think about the world around you and stretch your imagination. I actually subscribed to it, I just couldn't stand not being able to touch and absorb its pages. Why isn't there something like this over here? Now I just need all the back issues!

I am seriously thinking about starting something like this here in Olympia. I love design and layout, although I don't really have much experience with software. Well, here goes a new project!

I've been on a web-surfing streak, and have been coming across all these awesome blogs and magazines. Some of my favorites are two online mags: small and papier mache (based in Australia). Both of them also maintain blogs full of inspiration. Again, why not in the US?
